SOUTH SHORE can defy a penalty to make it 2-2 for the Robert Cowell yard. Interesting stable debutant Winemaker could be the chief threat.

Inconsistent sort. Returned to form from out of the blue when successful on return over C&D 8 days ago. Well drawn but no guarantee to be in same form under 5-lb penalty.

Verdict
Justified support to make a winning start for Robert Cowell (previously with Ruth Carr) at Windsor 7 days ago. Still looks well treated under 5-lb penalty, and he can follow up for yard that excels with this type.

Verdict
Three-time Dundalk winner. Back on track when third on final start for H. D. McGuigan there in late-March. New yard struck with an ex-Irish recruit last month, and this looks another interesting one. Previously worn hood replaces cheekpieces.

Verdict
Long-standing maiden. Very free when close second behind He's An Angel in classified stakes here. Forgivable effort on turf at Down Royal (5f, soft) since, and she isn't discounted with good-value apprentice taking over.

Long-standing maiden. Responded well to cheekpieces when close third in Brighton classified stakes. Easy to overlook run at Chepstow 3 days ago. Addition of first-time blinkers/Silvestre De Sousa both positive.

Went close in similar event here in spring. Still looked in form when fifth (denied a clear run) at Wetherby last time. Cheekpieces back on but remains difficult to win with (1-24).
